We have an opening for a sub Dental Hygienist. You will perform dental cleanings, and take x-rays, administer fluoride treatments and apply sealants when necessary. At the end of each cleaning, you will provide our patients with instructions on effective brushing and flossing techniques. We pride ourselves in providing excellent care to all of our patients and expect our hygienists to be attentive and detailed in their cleanings.
